On My Own
Sasha Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I don't need you
I can't see you
I don't love you
Oh, where are you?

You don't seem to understand what I'm saying
You don't seem to understand that I'm going
You don't seem to understand what I'm saying
You don't seem to understand that I'm going
You don't seem to understand what I'm saying
You don't seem to understand that I'm going

Going home alone





On my own

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Sasha's song "On My Own" seem to express a sense of independence and detachment from an individual in the singer's life. The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "I don't need you, I can't see you, I don't love you", indicating that the relationship between the singer and the subject of the song has deteriorated to a point where there is no longer any emotional attachment or reliance. The line "Oh, where are you?" implies that the subject has already left the singer's life, or perhaps was never present to begin with.


The verse following the chorus expresses the frustration and lack of understanding that the singer feels towards the subject. The repetition of the line "You don't seem to understand what I'm saying, you don't seem to understand that I'm going" emphasizes the singer's desire to distance themselves from the individual and move on with their life. The final line "Going home alone, on my own" reinforces the singer's sense of independence and self-sufficiency, despite the absence of the subject in their life.


Overall, the lyrics to "On My Own" communicate a message of detachment and self-reliance. The repeated use of phrases such as "I don't need you" and "on my own" imply that the singer has reached a point of emotional independence and is comfortable with the idea of being alone.
